Starmer vows to PROTECT British allies as he sends 4 more TYPHOONS to Qatar

Four extra British Typhoon fighter jets are being deployed to Qatar amid the conflict in the Middle East, Sir Keir Starmer has said. Speaking at a press conference in Downing Street, the Prime Minister also announced that a Government-chartered flight from Oman to Britain has now taken off, after it was delayed from doing so overnight. Sir Keir revealed he had chaired a Cobra meeting on Thursday, and acknowledged that people across the UK are “worried sick about their family and friends who are caught up in this”. He added: “I want to reassure the British public about the action that we are taking while the region has been plunged into chaos. “My focus is providing calm, level-headed leadership in the national interest.” The Mirror Facebook: http://facebook.com/dailymirror The Mirror IG: http://instagram.com/dailymirror The Mirror TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dailymirror The Mirror Twitter: http://twitter.com/DailyMirror The Mirror Homepage: https://www.mirror.co.uk Sign up for our newsletters: https://www.mirror.co.uk/email #Iran #middleeast #dubai
